During a recent radio interview, Royce Reed revealed how she felt about the "BBW" backlash, where she stands with the cast and if she is still with Dezmon Briscoe. Deets inside....

Royce Reed called in for some "Girl Talk" with TT Torrez on iPower 92.1 talked about all the drama on “Basketball Wives.” No subject was off limits as she dished on loving Dezmon, fighting with Shaunie and Evelyn and the "BBW" backlash. Check out the highlights:

On why Shaunie refuses to film with her:

Royce says she has no idea what Shaunie is upset with her about. She reached out to Shaunie but never received a response. Royce then went on to say Shaunie had issues with her doing interviews but Royce says she’s only defending herself.

On her relationship with Jennifer Williams:

She says she and Jen are cool. They both apologized to each other and are moving forward.

On celebrities saying “Basketball Wives” promotes bullying:

Royce said at one time she quit the show because she felt it was going the wrong route. She said she fought to have producers show another side of her and that’s why we get to see other aspects of her verses just seeing her fuss and fight with her castmates. She added that the show was like a mirror for her and helped her to change her life for the positive.

On Tami’s actions on the past two episodes:

Royce said she sees where a lot of people are coming from when it comes to her attitude. Royce explained why she never took sides and said what Tami DID and how she reacted was wrong. She said there’s another side of Tami that’s loving and funny.

On her having to be in a relationship and her relationship with her dad:

First Royce breaks down her previous relationships on the show. She then talks about her relationship with her father explaining how it’s hard for her to talk to her dad because of the way he speaks to her. She credits the show for opening up a line of communication between her father and herself and they are now at peace.

On her relationship status with Tampa Bay baller Dezmon Briscoe:

She says she and Dezmon are good. As far as the situation that happened on Twitter between Dezmon’s baby mama and her, she says it was crazy. She claims although him texting her was wrong, Dezmon has NEVER cheated on her and that the whole situation was extremely messy. She said she’s not leaving him because the world is telling her so.

Comments

On the earlier seasons i wasnt Royce's biggest fan but now I have to admit she's grown on me and now she's one of my favorite's. Its sad that the one with the least amount of drama that doesnt promote fighting and bullying gets the least amount of airtime. But she is a hopeless romantic. But people need to stay out of her business giving her crap because she wont leave her man. People who's boyfriends and husbands cheat on them repeatedly stay with their men and thats fine but bc she's on tv she's supposed to leave because of a text? Her life is someone else's entertainment thats all it is. She's living real life and in the real world people dont always throw away relationships because of petty issues that can be discussed or worked out. I wish her the best and I hope that if they do break up she learns how to be alone instead of hopping to the next man for a new season. Although i will say if she has no man and no drama on the show what will be her storyline? lol

I love Royce but when it comes to guys she needs to get it together.You don't have to stick ur dingaling in somebody to cheat.Who is to say he wouldn't have acted on his thoughts.smh.and Im sure if he is sending texts t his baby momma he is texting other females.

THIS GOES FOR TAMI,SHAUNIE & EVELYN YALL NEED TO LEAVE JEN ALONE YALL WOULD FEEL THE SAME WAY IF U GOT A DRINK THROWN IN YOUR FACE,A CLUTCH PURSE HIT TO THE HEAD YOUR FRIENDS TURNING IN U AND A SLAP TO THE FACE BY HER FRIEND YALL IS ONESIDED YOUR FRIENDLY WITH EVELYN AND NOT JENS OWN QUIT BEING FAKE P.S. TAMI LEAVE KEISHA ALONE YOU GIRLS ARE BULLIES

I agree they are bullies. Jen, on the other hand, deserve exactly what she gets. Evelyn was her friend before the show. You don't get so wrapped in the celebrity life that u forget that and go run and do an interview and call your best friend's boyfriend an "attention whore". Regardless to how you feel about HIM if you love HER and she is your friend, you watch your mouth! After Evelyn forgave her for that Jen runs to the blog and start hating and than Jen throws the blame on someone else blogging for her. REALLY JEN!

Basketball Bullies has sunk to its lowest, most gutter level!!!
Stopped watching this show a while back and happened to see part of it last night (Thursday)...shocked to see Shaunie condone and participate in a dirty, rotten prank of putting fish in the coffee pot and room of their awaiting guest!
Evelyn shouting out secrets (whether true or not) that her former best friend shared with her in confidence “during their friendship.”
This is what these adult women want young, impressionable Black and Hispanic girls to think--that this rude, wicked, disrespectful, bullying behavior is okay. This is the image of women of color that Shaunie O'Neal wants to share with the world!
A pretty face, a nice shape, having money or dating a celebrity does not make you attractive. Sans Jennifer and Royce, who truly seem to be trying to put themselves above all this foolishness, these are one of the meanest, ugliest, nastiest group of women I've seen on television.
Yet this time, it's not just the "White Man" that’s doing the exploitation. No VHI has help...with Shaunie O'Neal willing to play the destructive "Masta" role and everyone being willing to make a fool of themselves!

black people, please stop with this light skin, dark skin stupidity. Neither is better, BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL PERIOD. I'm light skinned and I am pretty, because I am a pretty woman, not because I'm a light skinned woman. Dark skinned and light are beautiful. Please remember, that light skin originally came from a place of pain, with our ancestors raped and if not raped, in a relationship that was never allowed to be public; so don't glorify skin color, we are all beautiful. I married the darketst man I could find to have a beautiful chocolate baby. Royce is a beautiful black woman who many men find attractive, trust. Now her father needs to be slapped for degrating his daughter on nationally tv, to gain points with Dwight Howard. Dwight dates who he wants, and Royce should do the same, just as long as they are great parents to their son. As for Dez, I pray that he treats Royce right and doesn't cheat

Royce's daddy is a jerk...She has daddy issues which affects her choice in men. Her dad is not a good man. He sold her out on tv for box seats to Dwayne's games. Her son can see Dwade with multiple women but he can't see Royce with no one unless they are married or some ish???

Blackwhitemeet。℃'ó'ϻ
that's all serious dating. Millions of members with good economic
condition and high quality. Someone suitable is here waiting for u.
with other single black, white girls and men in your city.. It is my favorite club for mixed love....

R is basically non existent on the show. why are we talking to her again? plus I would have beat that big back Tammy down if I was Keisha (stealing a grown woman's purse is daycare). Putting fish in Kenya's room (more daycare). wrap this show up and place in the trash...DONE!

HER DAD SAID SHE WAS NEEDY.AND HE IS TELLING THE TRUTH SHE IS,I FEEL SORRY FOR HER FOR ONE THING SHE'S DARK SKIN AND THAT WILL GET HER NO WHERE, BECAUSE WE KNOW IF YOU ARE NOT, WHITE,SPANISH,MIX,OR VERY LIGHT SKIN,MOST BLACK MEN,OR HIGH PAYED BLACK MAN WILL NOT LOOK AT HER TWICE..

You're probably one of those light chicks who think they're all that just because they're light. I have news for you. I've seen tons of light men with darker females and I notice dark men with light females. I honestly think that opposites attract because I like dark men, but always end up with a light one - lol - and my two sisters who are light skinned like to date dark men. Recently, they've been dating white men, but that's another story. Also lately, I've seen a ton of white men with black women (brown and dark) in NYC. It's not the complexion - it's the features darling - remember that!!!

Your comment is dumb because I'm a brown skinned woman with a light skinned husband who is VERY successful! We both are! He pursued me like there was no other woman on this planet so speak what you truly know. You don't know EVERY black person and if you're going by what you see in the media, then you really are ignorant! Also, you see Supermodel Naomi with her billionnaire boyfriend who is still married to his white wife and is traveling anywhere and everywhere with his dark skinned queen.

I THINK U WENT TO FAR WITH YOUR COMMENT, I AM A DARK SKINNED WOMAN AND I AM MARRIED, TO A PRETTY WEALTHY MAN, BEFORE THAT I'VE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEM WITH DATING OR FINDING A WEALTHY MATE............;;) NOT TO MENTION, SOME BLACK MEN DON'T LIKE DARKER SKINNED BUT OTHER RACES LOVE IT!!!!!

this was a very ignorant comment...what does the fact that she's dark skin have to do with anything??? there are beautiful dark skin women out here with payed brothers...that comment was irrelevant and had nothing to do with her interview

Yeah, your right. Skin color should not be an issue. Point,blank,period. Royce is a beautiful woman inside and out. Her man is very good looking. They are a cute couple. So what if her man sexted some other chick and she decided to stay with him. We do not know what kind of relationship they have. They only allow us to see what they want us to see. She isnt an attention whore. Anyways, I love Royce. She is what the definition of "REAL" should be in the black community. She has not been afraid to defend herself and she does not stay where she isnt wanted. She doesnt bully people but she isnt going to let people run over her either. I respect her for that. Although she has had her moments on the show too, for the most part, she was provoked to "act a fool" with the best of them. She is a fighter. I wouldnt have given up on making that money either. I would have tried to find a way to be on the show without interacting with those females too. She did the right thing. Even down to telling Tami that she was wrong before the 2nd altercation between Kesha and Tami. Royce is not a punk and she is going to stand firm in what she believes in no matter what. #TeamRoyce.

Royce simply needs prayer. Because hunny...God is the ONLY ONE who will inspire her to grow up, emotionally and spiritually. There are some deep emotional issues going on here when someone chooses to ignore reality all in the name of love...she clearly doesn't believe that there's something better out there. #smh

HER DAD SAID SHE WAS NEEDY.AND HE IS TELLING THE TRUTH SHE IS,I FEEL SORRY FOR HER FOR ONE THING SHE'S DARK SKIN AND THAT WILL GET HER NO WHERE, BECAUSE WE KNOW IF YOU ARE NOT, WHITE,SPANISH,MIX,OR VERY LIGHT SKIN,MOST BLACK MEN,OR HIGH PAYED BLACK MAN WILL NOT LOOK AT HER TWICE..

and another thing....men are finicky...they want what they feel they can't have and for a long time it was white or very bright women but woman of my complexion (carmel) and darker are starting to notice ( i know i am) that them same finicky brothers do a double take at a sista walking past them with they white girl....they missin' home boo so maybe you should wake up and look around you...times are, have and will continue to change with or without your narrow minded a$$. #toldulikeitiz

OMG! did you just relate being dark skinned to not being able to ever get a good man?! you are so fing stupid....i don't see one light skinned woman on housewives, isn't Peitra or whatever her name is that married to that short guy dark skinned, married and paid!!! dumb ass. and isn't Royce baby mama to a rich man? i can't stand pure ignorance such as yours....#thinkb4uspeak

I'm no fan of royce but I'm not a dumb bird either....you clearly haven't been watching the show or live under a rock. You can say "some" black men but Royce's child is by a wealthy, black man and all of her boyfriends on the show have been black men. PLENTY of black men love and marry dark skinned or brown women. Hate it all day, but the reality is that MOST of them love black women and they come in all colors. #period #lol #dumbANDdumber
